On Sunday evening, Broadway stars from Scarlett Johansson to Neil Patrick Harris turned out to honor the year’s best theater productions. While the event tends to veer toward conservative styles, many of the night’s attendees shined in fashionable fare—like Sienna Miller in a floral crown and Patricia Clarkson with her old glamour red lipstick.
